This Gates Premium Molded Coolant Hose offers an OEM-quality replacement solution tailored for upper radiator hose applications on select Pontiac GTO vehicles from 2005 to 2006. Manufactured with EPDM tube and synthetic fiber knit reinforcement, the hose features a heat-, ozone-, and chemical-resistant cover that withstands harsh coolant environments. Engineered to resist electrochemical degradation - the leading cause of hose failure - and vacuum collapse under negative pressure, it eliminates the need for internal springs in many cases. The hose complies with SAE 20R4 class D2 and DIN 73411 class A specifications (except tolerances), ensuring dependable durability and performance. Gates recommends replacing hose clamps with compatible clamps during installation for optimal sealing. This molded coolant hose supports marine applications and is designed to maintain coolant system integrity across a wide temperature range from -40 deg. F to 257 deg. F (-40 deg. C to 125 deg. C). Its pre-shaped design ensures a perfect fit and sealed conditions, making it a reliable choice for automotive cooling system maintenance.
